Dear Jayapataka Swami Guru Maharaja,
Please accept my respectful obeisances in the dust of your lotus feet.
Now it is a difficult time either for you or for your disciples. But despite of that, we feel wonderful guidance and care from you and Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu (Krisna). However presently most of the time we have to take decisions on how to act on our own s we are isolated.
And it is very important to act considering your instructions, without fail and with great responsibility. Then Krisna will make it possible for us to overcome the difficulties. Indeed, I admire you, Guru Maharaja. The main thing for us now is not to do stupid things.
I wish you to be healthy and that we, your disciples, won’t trouble you. Nothing happens without Krisna’s will. Whatever He wishes that is His mercy.
You, dear Guru Maharaja, your life and life of Srila Prabhupada are the example for us. Following you it is important to accept whatever is favorable for devotional service and reject whatever is unfavorable. If one does everything rightly: chant the Holy name, read Srila Prabhupada’s books, and associate with the devotees then Krisna can even arrange preaching via phone as it is happening with me now. Krisna and His mission are not restricted by our isolation.
Please accept my report for the last 3 days (1 to 3d April).
1. All the morning programs and the Deities greetings are attended via Mayapur.TV
2. Additional rounds of the Holy name – 48 – have been chanted
3. Kirtan on the balcony at 5.15 am, 12 noon, and 5.30 pm was chanted
4. Srimad-Bhagavatam 1.3.1-8 and Caitanya-caritamrita Madhya-lila 8.1-6 have been read
Bowing down to your lotus feet again and again,
Your servant,
Visakha Prema Devi Dasi,
diksa, Sri Mayapur, India
